They are so awful. Imo, that is one of the worst products they ever released.

Overpriced, basic, smith-looking shit.

Oh no, they are typical Oakley expensive and because you don't like them they are shit.

First off, Smith makes bomber products, almost better than Oakley. They aren't any more expensive than splices. They look pretty dope to me. Who cares if they are basic. Go get some crowbars you bandwagon hopping fuck.

And if you think those look like shit, what do you think about A-frames and ambushes? I can't believe they dropped the wisdom but still have a-frames. Just because I don't think either of those goggles looks good doesn't mean they are shit.

Well, typical overpriced Oakley I can accept, but this looks like a true Smith copy and I've never liked those goggles. I'd never pay for these goggles when you can get c-bars and splices for almost the same cost. I may have been a little hard but I still think these are very shitty looking. Like a-frames.

They kinda look like those scotts that wallisch wore in most of joss. Ugly. And this is really off topic but I never really realized how nice spy lenses are.

Yea I have a pair of soldiers and the lens on them is amazing. And I don't think these look like those new Scotts at all, those were really squared off.

Maybe its just the angle of the pic then. I have soldiers with that kind gold mirror lens and for how dark it looks from the outside it doesent seem to be bad when its not really bright out. Havent used them on snow yet though so idk how well the texture/definition would be in low light.
